I am planning to go this method but I am concerned about UV on the wires. Do you guy's worry about this?I prefer nodes because with strips your vertical density is much higher than your horizontal density.
so by doing nodes you can keep things more even? I am doing 3'' spacing. I started to sink my nodes into a 1/2'' emt pipe. that is what got me thinking about strips. Lol sure is a lot of work to sink the node in the pipe but man it looks good. how are you guys mounting your nodes to keep them straight and in tight form? here is a pic of the first of 20(maybe 32) bars I planned on using for my tree. my initial plan was 20 strings 50 nodes each. but i'm starting to lean towards making it 32 strings for tighter spacing.
